So I'll get some veggie steamer things. I feel so bad not having the ability to cook for him right now since he's going through a massive growth spurt.
Really small meals with the foods you list is a healthy way to eat, way healthier than fast food or processed junk in a can. The idea of "big 3 meals a day" is actually a myth. Six smaller meals is better.

Do you own a crock pot? That is a really easy way to cook without cooking. Just throw some veggies and chicken or lean beef or whatever in with a bit of water and let it cook. And ta-da! Stew!
